Video Games?

[icychic]

So I have a Nintendo Wii and an Xbox 360 with Kinect. Personally I think the Kinect is better because it detects your full body movement.

Does anyone use games on these consoles to help lose weight? There are so many cardio and exercise games like Dance Central and Just Dance and Zumba and Your Shape and I don't even know what else. I have heard good things about Dance Central 3 and am thinking of buying it...but I have some other games like the Sports Adventures or whatever it's called and a few others. I also have workout DVDs that I haven't really used much...mostly because I haven't been motivated but that is now changing.

So Xbox Kinect games...suggestions on the best ones that will give a great workout to burn calories?

It ultimately depends on what you enjoy doing most so you wouldn't depend on the motivation. What you enjoy doing will almost always beat motivation so it'll consistently push you forward to your goals easier. A specific DVD workout always give me better results but it's not enjoyable compared to zumba.

I like that the Kinect will see my whole body and tell me if I'm doing it right.
I go back and forth but I'm leaning to Your Shape or Dance Central 3 but looking at other options. Need something fun that will keep me moving with few breaks. Will probably head to EB Games or something this weekend and see what I can find.
